[Android Apps and Games] porcupine02:
Hi anthonycr!

First of all, I'd like to say how much I appreciate you sharing code with community. There are *a lot* of browsers

for android, but this is only open source actively developed browser beside aosp one.

I have been testing Lightning (apk from github) for a few days now and I must say I like it.

It's light and fast, and performes really well on my Xperia Mini Pro, as on Mako and few low end devices,

but there are couple of deal breakers for me.

- Where are back and forward buttons? Pressing back button only pans to top left corner of the page.

- Text reflow is missing. It's not big deal on 720p in landscape, but I can't really read anything on 320*480.

I also have a few feature sugestions to make which would IMO greatly improve usability and overall impression.

- In fullscreen mode show bars only when scrolling up at top of the page. Now they get shown everytime

I try to pan arround and it's kinda annoying on 3 inch screens.

- Play store description says "Long-press a link to open in a new tab", but instead it shows menu asking me how to open tab.

- I think address bar is way too big. If it was as high as tab bar with same font size, it would be perfect.

- Page load progress indicator would be nice. Maybe just a percentage shown next to favicon or colored bar like on aosp?

- If you decide to implement page load progress indicator, coloring it green on secure connection would be usefull.

- Search suggestions when typing in address bar.

- Is it possible to send "Do not track" request to websites? I think this is something webkit supports.

- Long press on new tab button to re-open last closed tab would counter accidental pressing X on tabs.

- Hide menu button if device has one or make hardware button configurable.

- Option to save session. I think be easiest to just make one bookmark containing links for every open tab.

- I have seen a few RSS readers (gReader for example) implementing mobilizers which make reading articles much more pleasant experience.

IMO best mobilizer on the market, Readability, provides free API. Could you please take a look at it since no other browser has this option.

- I have been using xScope browser for past two years, but unfortunately it's development has stoped more than a year ago leading to

discovery of Lightning. What made me use it were really useful gestures.

For example, swipe from the very sides of the screen acted as back/forward, double tap + left/right switched tabs and

two-finger swipe from top closed active tab.

I know Naked Browser (which is similar in size to yours) uses double tap gesture for zoom so I hope these are possible to implement

without too much effort.

I hope I'm not out of the line here with all these potential features, but I simply had to since most of other browsers are made by commercial

companies and they don't really listen to users.

And here is one more thing.

Since all phones in house run CM10.1 compiled without aosp browser, I tried building Lightning to include latest git commit and prevent crash.

I tried with Android Studio since it seemed easier to set up and a bit lighter on deps than Eclipse, however, compilation fails with following.

I doesn't really matter since I have rebuilt CM with aosp browser, but I will translate Lightning to Croatian and I want to test translation before

making pull request.

Thank you for your time.

All the best, Nedim.
